Personal life

He is a polyglot: aside from his native Hungarian, he fluently speaks English, French, German and Dutch.

Career

Tóth drifting in a BMW E46

Karting

He started racing in 2013, learning the basics of racing in karting. He first raced go-karts in Hungary and then competed in the German Championship and Euro Challenge. He later competed in the European and World Karting Championships, with his greatest success of his karting career being third place in the Hungarian championship and Rotax Max Wintercup in 2016 respectively.[2]

Lower formulae

In 2018, he contested the first three race weekends of the Italian F4 Championship for DR Motorsport.[3] During the season, he changed to MP Motorsport, contesting five of the six rounds of the F4 Spanish Championship, where he finished eleventh in the overall points standings, having scored 47 points.

In the 2019 season, he competed in ADAC Formula 4 in Germany for the R-ace GP team and, although he came close to scoring points on several occasions, he only managed to do so once at the last round in Sachsenring.[4]

Formula Renault Eurocup

In February 2020 Bhaitech announced that they had signed the Hungarian driver for the final Formula Renault Eurocup season. In the second race of the season Tóth finished 8th, in points, but was subsequently moved up a place through a penalty for Petr Ptáček, who had finished ahead of him, and ended up in seventh place. He scored two more points finishes that season and ended up 16th in the standings.[5]

2021

On 24 March 2021, Campos Racing announced the signing of Tóth for the 2021 season of the Formula 3 Championship for a one-year contract with an optional extension.[6][7] In the opening weekend in Barcelona, Tóth finished 27th, 23rd and 26th.[8] A few days before the second round of the season, Tóth was tested positive for COVID-19, thus ruling him out of racing that weekend.[9] The Hungarian returned for the round in Spielberg, where he scored his season-best finish of 19th in the first race. At the following round in his native Hungary Tóth was involved in a collision with Ido Cohen in the final race. Following another point-less weekend in Belgium Tóth managed do achieve his best result of the season at the penultimate round of the season, finishing 16th in race 2 at Zandvoort. Unfortunately for the Hungarian, his final weekend of the season ended without a finish in the top twenty, and Tóth finished his campaign 32nd in the standings, ahead of only three part-time competitors.

2022

Following the end of the season Tóth tested with Charouz Racing System in all three days of the post-season test in Valencia.[10] On 25 January 2022, the Czech team announced that Tóth would race with the team for the 2022 FIA Formula 3 Championship.[11]
